The lineup features six women and six men, highlighting Canada’s best emerging writers and underscoring TIFF’s commitment to gender parity across the breadth of its talent-development programmes. The women in this year’s intake will be supported in part by the organization’s trailblazing Share Her Journey campaign, which champions women both in front of and behind the camera.

Each woman had her own response to her environment, to the people who surrounded her and to the artistic or practical challenges she faced in wringing beauty and truth from her particular time and place. The film uses the women’s own words, taken from their letters and diaries, to reveal three individual creative processes in all their subtle and fascinating variety.

  • An Interview with the Canadian Director Katerina Cizek
    i i i i DOI: 10.20287/doc.d23.en01 The documentary as a democratic practice: an interview with the canadian director Katerina Cizek Cláudio Bezerra & Arline Lins* Katerina Cizek is a canadian documentary director and known as a pioneer in digital media and documentaries. Two-time Emmy-winning, Cizek has been a part of the digital revolution and has projects that defy our ideas of boundaries when we talk about interactive work. Her documentaries go beyond any kind of taxonomy, not only because they have many different types of media mixed in the storytelling but because they’re also a part of the revolution in the digital world themselves as they develop their narrative. The Highrise project with the National Film Board (CAN) does not just tell stories but transforms what we, the audience, think about the way we’re living in our cities, in our houses. It does that by putting us as audience and subjects at the same time. So we become part of the story, we immerse into the characters and we help her create the narrative by sharing experiences of our own. But what motivates her to – as she likes to say – work with and within the people and not just for them? What makes her include the audience as subject and co-creator at the same time? Katerina’s work breaks any geographic limits there might be when we watch or consume a conventional product that puts a screen between the au- dience, the subject and the director. She unites through technology. That’s what made possible for us to do the interview 7.282 km away.
